AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The current USB interface has terminals that are too close together, which causes crosstalk, increases characteristic impedance, affects signal quality and stability, and cannot meet the user's testing requirements.

Method used

Design an electrical connector in which a protrusion is provided on the side of the metal housing facing the terminal. The area of ​​the protrusion is larger than that of the terminal, thereby reducing the distance between the metal housing and the terminal, providing the estimated shortest return path, and reducing the characteristic impedance.

Benefits of technology

By reducing electromagnetic interference signals and lowering characteristic impedance, the accuracy and stability of signal transmission are improved, thus enhancing the user experience.

Abstract

本实用新型涉及电子设备领域,尤其涉及一种电连接器。电连接器包括金属外壳和连接主体,其中金属外壳包括壳主体和侧板,侧板设置于壳主体的一端,且壳主体与侧板连接;连接主体安装于金属外壳围成的区域内,连接主体包括塑胶座体和多个端子,端子固定于塑胶座体内;其中,侧板朝向端子的一侧设置有凸起。在不改变金属外壳与连接主体相对位置的前提下,金属制成的凸起能够对端子进行覆盖,由于各个端子为传输高速数据的正负极,凸起能够减小金属外壳部分与端子的距离,可以使端子在传输信号过程中的干扰信号减少,以及凸起为信号提供预估最短的回流路径,进而减少特征阻抗。
